Top work by local photographers is on display in a special showcase at the Shadbolt Centre for the Arts at the end of the month.

The Burnaby Photographic Society is holding the showcase on Saturday, Jan. 31.

The showcase has been a tradition for the group since 1997, with an evening of images set to music.

The event is the culmination of a week-long photo exhibition at the Shadbolt Centre - starting Jan. 25, you can drop in to the Shadbolt to see a display of selected prints by society members.

A press release promises the showcase "will sweep you off to exotic places and cultures, and bring you up close to wildlife, fine art and visual surprises."

The Burnaby Photographic Society was founded in 1970 by a group of amateur photography enthusiasts to help broaden their knowledge and encourage photography as an art form - a mission that the group continues to this day.

The group holds weekly meetings at the Shadbolt Centre, attracting members of all skill levels and stages of development.

Check out its website at www.burnabyphotographicsociety.com for more details.

The showcase night starts at 7 p.m. in the Shadbolt's James Cowan Theatre, 6450 Deer Lake Ave. Tickets are $18.
